Plasti Dip grille --> Pics

[kwimberly]

Excuse the pictures - it's getting dark, so I couldn't get too far away and still have the flash light up the area.

I think it turned out great for 5 bucks. I'm notorious for crappy spraypaint technique, but this stuff is awesome - very forgiving.

BTW - the headlights have my new SilverVision side marker bulbs. The second picture is pre-Plasti and with the regular amber bulb for comparison.

timing belt. I've PM'd Brenden (t1demont1) a few times about doing it, but I haven't heard from him since I asked when he would be available. The kit is on the way - should be here Wednesday.

I have halogen, so I use H7's for high and low, and W5W for the citylights. I have Sylvania SilverStar Ultras for the lows, and OEM stock for the highs. The turn signals are Sylvania SilverVision (had to order them from the UK).

Here's a little write-up I did with the bulb sizes and stuff:

I could do it next Saturday, $300.

No way, dude. Have some 4 ring pride! Looks good tho.

[kwimberly]

I'm definitely keeping the rings shiny.

I didn't sand, so we'll see how long it lasts. I did clean them very well and scrubbed with an abrasive sponge.

Will you take a picture from far away of the front of your car? You're joey mod is all out, you left nothing chrome!

It's not a Joey. Those are the Helix Ecodes - people either love 'em or hate 'em because of the black surround. Will take better pics soon.

Those are the ones on ECS right? Yeah I think I'd prefer the low beam surround to remain chrome, but I'll hold all judgement until I see pics from far away.

I got them off eBay, but there's a GB going on via Parts4Euro.

True true. Can you re-use the stock xenon projectors in the helix ecodes for the high/low beam? Just take those pieces of plastic out of the stockers?

those headlights look dark, good job on the grilles...

I thought you didn't do any mechanical stuff anymore cause you're to busy
